Good morning guys ☕

Alexa App

TP link Casa

Blink

Did anyone try this update thing already ?

Running the firmware update.

Verifying the firmware update.

Keeps verifying….

Still verifying?

Didn’t work.

Now trying a full Factory reset.

Everything is working again for now.

BUT, putting it back in his own place, disconnect from laptop. And reconnect on it’s own power source. Made the Alexa app crash and it keeps crashing.

Retry, firmware update.

And again keeps verifying….

Verifying won’t end .

Factory reset worked, so try again.

Second try, after this reset. First set Homey on it’s place and reload backup.

21:00 everything works.

21:15 still working

23:15 still working

So did you do a factory reset or just a nother update?

Still working ?

Factory reset.

Then on it’s own power supply and a backup restore.

I’m afraid that after a restart of Homey it won’t work anymore.

This Is the first night it still works.

For two days it has been working on evenings and stoped working or started crashing at night.

Right now it still works. Hopefully it keeps working👍

I switched to this app which has been rock solid, does everything I need it to do, OK you don`t have all the different voices but its snappy and does the job. I figured out how to run commands “Kettle on” [amazon echo](https://homey.app/en-gb/app/dev.schweiger.echo/Amazon-Echo/)

Next morning Alexa app is still working.

It looks like, a factory reset, setting Homey back where it should on it’s own power supply, and then a restore of a working backup, is doing the trick.

At least for me.

I tried to reconnect a couple days ago it worked and it’s still connected. So I think the problem is resolved. I haven’t done anything specific apart reconnecting once.

Did you restore an older backup or the latest.

I restored the oldest so i had a backup where i didn’t try so much to get Alexa working again.

Maybe that is why it works for me.

And did you restore the backup while homey was on your laptop or already on his own power supply ?

Hey Hugo

So I finally did a factory reset on my computer.

Then connected it back to his power supply.

Then I restored a backup.

Still doesn’t work 🤷🏼

Out of solidarity for those still having issues, I restarted my Homey Pro last night and the app crashed after it restarted. I am to the thread and found this has been an ongoing issue. I live in the northeast US and the Amazon server us-1-east has been problematic recently so I thought changing servers might resolve the problem but no matter what I’ve done I continue to receive the error: undefined notification. Looks like I’ll be waiting patiently and checking in now and again 🤷‍♂️
